the best cabinet/shelf. You can use the paper template to fix the

position. Attached the metal bracket under the cabinet/shelf with

supplied mounting screws. For your reference, the drill should be

used 2mm dia., and the deep of the hole is around 9-11mm. If the

board thickness of cabinet/shelf is thinner than the screw ’ s height,

you can supply the suitable screw by yourselves.

2) Slide the unit to metal bracket until it locks securely. Beware of

pigtail antenna not to trap inside the slide during installation.

3) Due to its heavy weight, the unit should be installed with great care.

Be sure that the cabinet is used that is sturdy enough to support the

weight of the unit.

To reduce the risk of fire, do not place any heating area or without

the spacing.

You can slide out the unit from the metal bracket to be the stand
